What started as a 20 minute hack borrowing youtube parsing code from canola2, I have now packaged up as a fremantle application. Currently it lets you browse top rated, recently featured, most viewed, most recent and all the youtube categories and plays back the video you select.

Next features scheduled are:
  • search
  • show full description
  • seek bar when playing
  • download

It is a little rough, like no error handling when you lose network etc. but please try it out and give feedback.

UPDATE: zoutube 0.1-18 is now in extras. Thanks all for the testing.

Cool. Screenshots are always welcome, for those of us without a Maemo 5 device.

How long did you wait? Did you have a network connection? It seems to be fine on my device. If you had network connection and it didn't come up even after say 15-30 seconds, can you try running in terminal:

/opt/zoutube/zoutube and see if anything gets output in the terminal

Strange I don't get that, what version of python-osso do you have installed?

my dpkg -s python-osso shows:

Version: 0.4-0maemo1
